For the second straight game, Barcelona were matched up against a newly-promoted La Liga side as they squared off against SD Huesca.
Huesca are currently amid a landmark year in their history as this is their first ever season in La Liga. So far, the club has exceeded expectations as they came into the contest with four points, which included an impressive draw result against Athletic Bilbao. The fixture against Barca would provide the team with a major early season test and for club officials and fans, they were hoping to avenge the 12-1 aggregate loss to Barca in the Round of 32 stage in the 2014-2015 Copa Del Rey.
